“…Variational inequalities were introduced in 1966 by Hartman and Stampacchia (see [21]), and have numerous important applications in physics, engineering, economics, and optimization theory (see, e.g., [17,21,24,25] and the references therein). The variational inequality problem for a point-to-set operator T : dom(T ) ⊆ R n ⇒ R n and a nonempty closed and convex set C ⊂ dom(T ), is stated as Find x * ∈ C such that ∃u * ∈ T (x * ), with u * , x − x * ≥ 0, ∀x ∈ C.…”
